The electric power supply problem for people who like to cycle either in everyday use and along trips of several days, it's becoming increasingly challenging. More and more electricity is indeed required not only to illuminate the road in the dark hours of the night but also to feed the ever growing number of electronic devices that we can't live without. This site aims to be just a first step in the attempt to orientate the user in the not always easy commitment to choose the most appropriate tools.

CyclEEx & CyclEEx EXP

CyclEEx ... aiming to total electrical "Self Sufficiency"

CyclEEx EXP ... specifically conceived to test CyclEEx performances

CyclEEx EXP
basic setup and associated equipment has been specifically designed to thoroughly test:

any
cycle generator available on the market (e.g. hub dynamo, side-tyre dynamo,
spoke dynamo, etc.) up to an equivalent of 100 km/h (i.e. 750 rpm approx. on a
28” wheel)

14”
to 28” dynamo equipped wheels

ac-dc
energy converters

battery
energy transfer efficiencies

photovoltaic
panels
